January 14, 1970

I have a question to ask you for the Bulletin. It’s about this note

 in which you said: "Why do men want to worship? It would be

 much better to become than to worship."

(Mother laughs)

Could we add to this the comment you made last time? You

 added, "It is out of laziness to change that people worship."

It’s true. But it’s harsh! (Mother laughs)

 Do you think we should?

(silence)

But then we should add: "One may not worship ONLY on condition that one changes." – Many want neither to change nor to worship!
